PRESIDENT TRUMP'S TRADE WAR TAKES EFFECT

TRUMP TARIFFS TAKE EFFECT

By: Derek Varsalona

President Trump's tariffs took effect this Thursday.  While I am in all support of free trade, I am more in support of fair trade.  The fact of the matter is, America has been getting screwed on the trade end for years until Trump came along and fixed it.

These are the highest tariffs since World War II.  You can call this trade war World War III.  But this is a war that needs to be fought and needs to be won by the United States.  I am glad that President Trump is in charge of doing just that.  For years America has been getting screwed in the trade policy.  Now, it the time that President Trump fixes that.  The average tariff per country is 15.2%

I know that this is going to slow down the economy on the front end.  The stock market may go erratic and go down.  Inflation is likely to persist for a considerable time.  But this is what needs to be done to get the trade imbalance under control.  Thank God for President Trump and his tariffs.  As always, comments are accepted.

PRESIDENT TRUMP SHOULD NOT CONTROL AI

THE GOVERNMENT SHOULD NOT CONTROL AI

By: Derek Varsalona

Is AI a cause for concern for the federal government?  The Feds think so, and that is why they want to control it.  You see, the Republicans say they are for the free market, but they really are not.  This push to control AI by President Trump
proves that theory.  

I do support America being the leader of the AI industry.  Innovation should come from the private sector without government interference.  I am afraid that if the government controls AI, it will be the result of America's next big war.  Yes, I will go so far as to say that AI could lead to the next World War III.  

AI in the right hands can do a lot of good for the nation.  It might find the cure for cancer.  It might find the cure for other diseases.  But that can only happen if the government and President Trump do not control the AI industry.   What I am afraid of is the government, and especially President Trump, controlling AI with their ideology.

Let's keep AI free of government control.  A strong, independent AI out of the hands of government and in the hands of the private sector will lead to a more prosperous America.  As always, comments are accepted.

LET'S END THE FEDERAL RESERVE

THE ECONOMY IS NOT IN GOOD HANDS

By: Derek Varsalona

America, I have got bad news for you.  The economy is slipping and that is all due to President Trump and his tariffs on the world.   I honestly did not think these tariffs would go on for this long.  I was once in support of the tariffs to get our trade deficit in line but this has gone too far.  President Trump's tariffs on the world is a losing battle and the tariffs are causing the economy to crash.  I do not think we are heading for a depression but we are clearly on the road to a weaker economy if things do not turn around soon.

As of right now the American dollar is in a weaker position due to these tariffs.  These tariffs are going to have a stronger effect on the American economy in a negative way more than the Chinese did with brining the Corona Virus into the world.  The fact of the matter is the trade war did not needed to be started by President Trump but it will surely be ended in a negative way by the same man that started it.

The Feds are secheduled to cut interest rates.  That is just the problem.  We should send the federal reserve as the are fixing the market and always has been.  You see the Fed is suppose to be independent of politics, yet it never has been.  It has always been fixing the market based an international crisis or events.  It's is time to End the Federal Reserve.  As always comments accepted.

PRESIDENT TRUMP WANTS PRESIDENT OBAMA ARRESTED

TRUMP WANTS TO ARREST OBAMA

By: Derek Varsalona

President Trump and his supporters want him to arrest President Obama and charge him with Treason.  The arrest would come for trying to ruin President Trump's life with the Russia Hoax investigation.

I think this is silly nonsense, but it does have legs to it.  But that is not why President Obama should be arrested.  President Obama should be arrested for the assassination of Ambassador Chris Stevens in Benghazi and for leaving a man to die without proper security.  Many times, Ambassador Chris Stevens asked for security.  Many times he was denied, and Obama cost him his life.  Arrest President Obama for Benghazi, not Treason.  As always, comments are accepted.

PRESIDENT TRUMP IS THE PRESIDENT OF UNION WORKERS

TRUMP IS THE PRESIDENT OF UNION WORKERS

By: Derek Varsalona

For too many times under the Biden administration the union workers have been left behind.  You Joe was to blame for shipping jobs over seas.  President Joe Biden is credited with causing Bidenflation in America.

President Donald Trump has saved the union and union jobs.  It appears to me that the Republicans are the party of the unions and working class along with the rich.  AS for the Democrats, they are the party of criminals and illegal immigrants.

The America steel industry is roaring back under the leadership of President Donald J. Trump. Thank you President Trump for bringing the steel workers back to America.  It proves that President Trump's tariffs are working.  As always comments accepted.

PRESIDENT TRUMP WAS RIGHT TO CUT HARVARDS FUNDING

PRESIDENT TRUMP HAS THE RIGHT TO CUT HARVARD FUNDING

By: Derek Varsalona

Now, the Liberals at Harvard University are crying that their funding is getting mad that their funding is getting cut.  

President Trump is right to cut the funding to this institution.  I hope that he cuts the funding of other colleges.  First of all, colleges make money by ripping off students on tuition and alumni endowments.  Harvard has enough money to sustain itself.  The taxpayers should not be footing the bill to sustain Harvard's economic reality.

If Harvard and other colleges cared that much, they would give students a reduced rate on their college education.  But college is a business, and it is in the company of ripping people off for a college education.

President Trump is right to cut Harvard's funding.  As always, comments are accepted.

TRUMP'S CONCENTRATION CAMPS

TRUMP'S CONCENTRATION CAMPS

By: Derek Varsalona

President Trump has set top concentration camps for illegal immigrants.  This is a little bit concerning.  How is the treatment of these migrants?  The main concern I have is how far President Trump is willing to take this.  I am scared shit that people of different political persuasions than President Trump are going to be sent to these concentration camps.

President Trump's approval rating on immigration in his base is only at 41% which is horrible.  So what is a President to do?  Start to bump those up by setting up concentration camps.  Tent camps are being set up by the Trump Administration nationwide and in many cities.  These are the ICE jails.

What concerns me is how far he is willing to take this?  I suspect that he is going to put people of different political persuasions, let us say Democrats or even Libertarians, in these concentration camps.  

This sounds very similar to another villain that we know.  Adolf Hitler.  The fact of the matter i,s there are no similarities between Trump and Hitler.  Other than now, President Trump is setting up concentration camps for migrants.

But what concerns me is how far President Trump is willing to take this.  Will he put people of different political persuasions in these camps and detention centers?  I fear what is next.  As always, comments are accepted.
